NOTE on Joining the SF Bay Area Chapter: Because of technical and procedural limitations you will not be able to register for the Project Management Fundamentals Course at the member rate on the same day that you join the PMI SF Bay Area Chapter.

The PMI SF Bay Area Chapter database is automatically updated during a nightly download only after PMI has completed the processing of your new chapter membership. Please remember to provide adequate time to allow your chapter membership to process before registering for this course through the website.
